Contribute Feedback What Matvl likes about The Cottage Tea Rooms:
We stopped off at the Tea Rooms for lunch. Quite grumpy service around managing covid thankfully not directed at us but awkward for other patrons. Food is ok, nothing fancy but did the job. Sitting outside is lovely and definitely the highlight of our visit. View all feedback.
What Chris doesn't like about The Cottage Tea Rooms:
He were in the village and decide to get something to eat and drink from here. You have to get a table then go inside to order food and drinks. The scones were ok, I had a hot chocolate which was ok. The other food we had was ok. We sat outside as the weather was good and the views were good of the sea. There was a robin flying to the different tables to get crumbs View all feedback.
View is amazing. Scones are ok. Wasps are overwhelming. It was impossible to enjoy our overpriced creme tea with wasps constantly darting at the food and us. Tbf all of Clovelly seems to have a disproportionately large number of wasps.
Dolphins and wasps… A wonderful location for a cream tea with an amazing view! We sat on the terrace for lunch and drinks. Excellent choice of GF options, with some lunch items feeling a little over priced (the Clovelly premium). Food was very well prepared with salads fresh and well dressed. The whole place was very clean and tidy, attended to regularly by staff who were polite and friendly. From our table the view over the harbour on a sunny day even offered us the bonus of a dolphin visit, clearly visible from our vantage point. The ‘fly in the ointment’ for us was the unwanted abundance of wasps during our meal. It was a problem for us and many other patrons sat around us. The staff were sympathetic, with one server saying he’d been stung six times in the last few weeks. The real disappointment was the seeming lack of willingness to minimise the wasp nuisance. I saw no wasp traps or repellents in operation. But when your customer base is made up of one-time visitors, do you need to bother?
Lovely food in fab location! We had gluten free cream teas, so tasty! Lovely staff, great visit would definitely recommend, most of the menu can be made gluten free!
Lunch at the Cottage Tea Room, Clovelly, Bideford, North Devon. Located along the main cobbled street in the old village of Clovelly is the Cottage Tea Room. We sat in the very picturesque garden overlooking the quay of Clovelly Village. Food was of decent quality but rather expensive compared to the many other cafes and restaurants we visited in the Bideford and North Devon area. Staff were pleasant and friendly. Final bill rather expensive for a light lunch though.
We were in the area at the start of our holiday so decided to visit Clovelly. On the way back up we decided to stop at these tea rooms for lunch. Fortunately the weather was dry and warm enough for us to sit outside and we got a great table with a great view. We ordered inside and all had the cream teas. The service was friendly and the food arrived quickly. The scones were warm with plenty of jam and cream provided. They were very tasty and plenty of debate around which order they should be applied. The pot of tea gave nearly 3 full cups of drink. Would definitely visit again if we are in the area.
